Oh, well, you are right.  I did not understand your role.  I apologize for
speaking without knowledge.

In that case, I don't know why it would be bad for you to go to the DLS on
your own dime, other than the reasons I mentioned about rubber-stamping the
CompareOffice suite.  Maybe Louis can elaborate.

Maybe we should have an English native-lang group.  I've seen others call
for a UK-English native-lang, maybe we should get a US-English native-lang.
We could put words like "Yo!" and "Word up" and "Ain't" in the help section.
